1025R vs 2032R vs Kubota ??

Correct, no other dealers have B3200/B3300.

Tubes so the rims don't rust is what he said.

I can't see why it would cost $500 to fill the tires. I highly recommend getting the tires filled with something non-corrosive. Even with tubes the valve stems can leak and rust the wheels. If you deal with this dealer get them to take the tires/ wheels off the tractor and have them filled somewhere else with something non-corrosive. Then you won't have to deal with handling them.

Some people on here have dealt with Barlows in Kentucky. You will have to pay your states tax on the tractor still.

The dealer 150 miles away said they would do $13k with tires filled with non-corrosive and delivered for the B3300SU, or $14k for the same on the B3200. I'm thinking the extra $1,000 is worth it in the event we want to put a MMM on eventually.

Will they do the larger tires on the B3200? What kind of fluid are they using?

Yes, they are doing ag tires. I don't know the brand of fluid, just that it is non-corrosive for wheel use.

Last question...

I see that the B3200 is listed as 32/23 horsepower (gross/PTO) while the B3300 is listed as 33/25 (gross/PTO). Why is the B3200 less, and will I ever notice it?

 

[jeff9366]

It takes a 50% increase in horsepower before your really "notice it."

 

[TommyB33]

I've heard it is closer to 10-15% before you notice. I'm most concerned about the PTO HP being less due to the use of our old brush hog.

Any idea why it would be lower?

We went with the B3200. Had it delivered today and hooked up our 4' rotary mower. Handled it perfectly. In 3' high grass it didn't even consider bogging down. Very pleased with the service and price we got.

Congrats. Did you get it from the far away dealer?

Yes, they delivered it this morning with a full tank of fuel.

Also confirmed the fluid used was Rimguard. Will still be picking up some weights for the front for added stability.

After coming from a 3-speed with low/high and a clutch, this hydrostatic transmission is SO nice.
